Is the leak in the hose or possibly in the controller itself? Also I wonder if a bit of some type of grease/Vaseline might seal things up.

The controls are available and not too expensive, so you might want to eliminate a problem there.

I just replaced my controller. The hard part I had was finding the proper vacuum connector. It seems nobody makes a proper replacement.
